60Without realizing it, my tone had grown a little sharp. Licht blinked in a daze. A flicker of embarrassment passed over his usually calm face, the mask slipping from his features. After a moment, the prince dropped his head, covering his mouth with a hand. “…What am I doing?” A short groan escaped him as he ran both hands through his hair in frustration. “Sorry.” He suddenly lifted his head. Now Licht’s face was mottled with discomfort and embarrassment. The constant,…

61 Titi changed the subject. “Oh, I heard about that. They say it’s only girls being targeted.” “Huh? I heard it’s noble children, boys and girls alike.” “Really? I’d heard status doesn’t matter.” Hmm? Titi and Liv tilted their heads at each other, faces close. “With something this unsavory, I guess the rumors are bound to take many forms.” When I added this, Licht, who had been listening quietly, let out a heavy sigh and joined in. “Whatever it is, the…

Episode 62 “Our youngest really has quite the nerve.” Dad rested his chin on his hand and placed it on my head. I gazed at the cake boxes stacked neatly in the dining room. One of every kind, a total of eight. “They were just so delicious.” “Right. Who would have thought you’d go so far as to reserve and buy the entire tea salon menu for a whole month.” I said I’d be staying here all month… I bought them thinking of everyone. ‘Maybe buying a whole month’s…

Episode 63 “No, you really don’t have to eat it!” “If you want cake, you need to have your meal first. Let’s go.” “Huh?” While I stood there blankly, I realized Liam had already made it halfway down the corridor and was looking back at me. His gaze lingered, then came a short sigh. “So it’s true, what Void said. You really are a spoiled child.” “Wh-what?!” I flailed my limbs like a fish freshly caught, because Liam, having strode up without expression,…

64Thick foliage and trees made it seem as though the place had been hidden away by fairies themselves. There, I laughed as I kicked my legs in the water. “Hehehehehe.” Pale steam rippled as the water splashed. “That laugh is weird.” From behind a tree, Khalid grumbled in annoyance. “Do I really have to stand watch for you?” “Please do.” After checking the depth, I slipped into the water, still wrapped in a thin cloth just in case. “Wow… So this is what it means…

Episode 65 "Ow, my back. The undergrowth is so thick, this shortcut won't be usable anymore." The sudden presence was announced with an unexpected tumble; it was a woman dressed in blue Eastern-style robes. "Hehe. I bet you never imagined I'd beat you home by taking the hot spring route, did you?" I froze like a statue. Of course, I was shocked that there was an unknown shortcut here—but more than that— 'That voice…' The gentle tone was achingly familiar to my ears. Brushing off…

66‘But Mister said… he caught the culprit!’ Did some remnants remain? ‘No!’ My body moved on instinct as I saw the black shadow reaching for the two girls. At the same time, a hand abruptly grabbed me from behind. “Rubian? It really is you. I kept calling, where are you rushing off to?” It was Licht. “Licht! Liv and Titi! Look—there!” “Huh?” Frantic, I pointed across the main street. Seeing the blood drain from my face, Licht seemed to understand and…

67 “There.” I muttered in annoyance. “Excuse me.” I pushed the face clinging to me aside. “Could you please let go?” “Euuung.” The mage whined like a child, shaking her head. From the moment we first met, she had not stopped petting my hair with her cheek pressed close to mine. “It’s been so long, I missed this feeling.” “…” Sighing deeply, I felt dizzy. Is this really the time for this? “Asya Drukan.” “Yes!” Asya answered…

Episode 68 “You little brat—! Come here, now—!” The moment the men instinctively sensed something amiss and lunged for me, a sigil, scrawled with complex equations, floated into the air. “Ma-ma-magician—!” “Oh, right. This isn’t me, it’s my friend over there doing it.” At my words, Asha, who’d been standing dumbfounded, hurriedly placed her hand on the ground. “That’s correct~” Well, at this point, the world’s spinning around so much I can’t even tell…

Episode 69 ‘Kal!’ Though he tried to keep his voice steady, I could hear it trembling on the verge of breaking. I answered at once. ‘I’m at Ipsen Mountain!’ Fumbling, I touched my earlobe and closed my eyes. I could feel Licht’s gaze on me, but I had no choice. I just hoped it looked like I was only dizzy. ‘Honestly, I’m not sure exactly where. Licht and Lady Titi are hurt, but I caught the bad guys…’ ‘Huh?’ ‘I’m fine.’ A deep, long sigh…

70 Jingle, jingle! “Correct!” The cheerful sound of the bell filled the cave, and Sortie grinned, exclaiming, “I got it right!” “But do Abelita herbs really have pointy leaves? I can never tell…” I puffed up my chest with pride. “There’s a trick to recognizing them. If you visit the ducal estate later, I’ll show you myself.” “Wow!” “Rubian, you really know so much.” Olivia admired me with pure wonder. The children sat in a circle by the…

Episode 71Ch. 8 When Leviathan stepped out of the cave with Rubian in his arms, a crowd had already gathered. Of them all, the knights bearing the Zevert crest were by far the most agitated. “Your Grace, what about Rubian…?” Leon, so unlike his usual self, strode forward with a tense expression. He had stepped back, perhaps out of concern for Rubian, but his gaze as he checked on the child was sharper than anyone’s. “Shh.” Leviathan quietly shook his head. He then took a…

Episode 72 Several days passed. From the moment I returned to the manor, I fell mildly ill. In the end, at the Duke’s strict command, the physician of Zelox was dragged in without warning. I learned how the kidnapping incident was resolved from fragments of adult conversation I overheard while half-asleep. Licht, Titi, and Olivia had all returned home safely, and the culprits were captured and sent to prison. Asha was nearly accused as another suspect in the kidnapping for approaching…

Episode 73 I slowly opened my eyes. The first thing I saw was… a head of fluffy pink hair, as soft as cotton candy. “Hello there.” Rosetta smiled as she greeted me. I barely moved my eyelids, burying my nose in the bedding as I mumbled back. “Hello…” Wow, this is real. It felt as if I’d been wandering in dreams for a long time. Too bad that dream was a rotten nightmare. ‘Tch. It’s rare for me to see my past life in a dream.’ Maybe it was because my…

Episode 74 ‘But who was it?’ Their face was hidden by the hood pulled low. I couldn’t gauge their height or build either… “The price for standing against our king will be severe.” Only that clear line of dialogue remained in my memory. The tone wasn’t distinct, but one thing stuck with me— ‘The crest on their right forearm.’ The mark trailing beneath the sleeve surfaced vividly in my mind. The World Tree. A dragon encircling it as it soared upward. It was the…

75“……” “You were here this morning, too.” “Did she fall asleep?” Khalid’s reply was unrelated. “If you’re that curious, you might as well have gone in.” “…It’s fine.” The boy answered coolly, folding his arms. He looked, surprisingly, quite natural standing among the knights. “…I don’t deserve to.” “What?” “Nothing. I’ll keep watch here.” He spoke with resolve, turning his gaze away from Leviathan in a final way. That…

76From a distance came the faint sound of carriage wheels. A woman’s wide, startled eyes framed by the window. Himself, running toward that sight… What kind of memory was this…? At that instant, the shouts of people rang out. “There’s been a kidnapping! They’ve taken noble children!” “…!” Khalid’s head snapped up. The weakened force holding him together quickly gathered itself back with perfect balance. “Ruby!” The wavering steps turned into a dead sprint…

Episode 77 “Blan…kets! Outerwear! Covers!” He dashed off somewhere at full speed, then returned, his arms full of things like his furry outerwear, blankets, and anything remotely like a throw, all bundled up. Yet, in the end, he was so flustered he couldn’t bring himself to actually drape anything over me, only standing there shivering, his hands trembling uncontrollably. “I-Isn’t the coat too heavy? What if my little sister just… vanishes?” What’s with him. “I’m not…

Episode 78 “Your face looks a bit flushed. Are you running a fever again?” Khalid suddenly asked, his expression tense. I shook my head vigorously to say no. He then poured rich, overflowing mana into me in an instant, a surge of power on a whole different level from anything he’d given me before. As I opened my eyes wide at the sudden influx of strength, his reply was nonchalant. “Repayment.” Khalid released my hand and stretched his arms wide. “All right. I think that’s…

Episode 79 “For now, leave the Eosia matter to them. If any new information comes in, notify me immediately.” “Yes, sir.” Borbel bowed respectfully and withdrew. Leviathan called for Adolf. “Bring me Rubian’s adoption papers.” “Here they are.” He completed the complicated documents with meticulous care. Rubian was his daughter. Whatever past she carried no longer mattered. His pen paused a moment at the section regarding the child’s nationality. “Adolf,…
